Spatial Heterogeneity and the Wage Curve revisited
Longhi, Simonetta; Nijkamp, Peter; Poot, Jacques - 2004
local labour market is in close proximity of other labour markets, a local shock that increases unemployment may not lead to … lower pay rates if employers fear outward migration of their workers. Hence, the unemployment elasticity of pay will be …

Geographical distribution of unemployment : an analysis of provincial differences in Italy
Cracolici, Maria Francesca; Cuffaro, Miranda; Nijkamp, Peter - 2007
Unemployment rates appear to vary widely at a subregional (e.g., local or provincial) level. Using spatial econometric … models for spatial autocorrelation, this paper focuses attention on the spatial structure of regional unemployment … of unemployment in the 103 provinces of Italy for the years 1998 and 2003. The results suggest that there is a clear …

The effect of migration on income growth and convergence : meta-analytic evidence
Ozgen, Ceren; Nijkamp, Peter; Poot, Jacques - 2009
We compare a set of econometric studies that measure the effect of net internal migration in neoclassical models of long-run real income convergence and derive 67 comparable effect sizes. The precision-weighted estimate of beta convergence is about 2.7%. An increase in the net migration rate of...

The effect of migration on income convergence : meta-analytic evidence
Ozgen, Ceren; Poot, Jacques; Nijkamp, Peter - 2009
Using meta-analytical techniques, we focus on 11 studies that explicitly measure the effect of a net migration variable in neoclassical convergence models and derive 57 comparable effect sizes. The data suggest that an increase in the net migration rate of one percentage point increases on...

A comprehensive analysis of the wage curve in Brazil : non-linearities, urban size, and the spatial dimension
Barufi, Ana Maria Bonomi; Haddad, Eduardo Amaral; … - 2016
Agglomeration economies have a relevant impact on local labour markets. The interaction of workers and firms in dense urban areas may generate productivity advantages that result in higher wages. City size has an important impact on the relative bargaining power of workers and firms in the...

Exponential or Power Distance-decay for Commuting? An Alternative Specification
de Vries, Jacob J.; Nijkamp, Peter; Rietveld, Piet - 2004
In this paper we determine the effect of transport cost on commuting flows, on the basis of an analysis of home-to-work journeys between municipalities in Denmark. Special attention is given to a proper estimation method and the form of the distance-decay function. It appears that neither an...
